THE HERALD's kilograms, this morn
ing, tell of another of those awful catas-
trophies on the railroad which occur
with such cruel regularity. On Tues
day morning there was collision he

and besides the general smash-up and
destruction of property it is estimated
that twenty-five lives were lost, AS

death, the car stove, got in its work,

taking more lives than the collision
itself, while it certainly added to the
horror and sufferings of the Inflated PEG.

SHOULD WOMEN BEHANGEDe

A womanlwas to have been hanged in
New York, last month, for the murder
of her husbands A few days before the
date OF the execution, the Governor re-
spited her for month, and animated
that heidi 50 in border togiye che Legis+
lature an opportunity to pass upon the
question of whether or not women shall
suffer the death penalty. 1t is under
stood that if the Legislature will relieve
women from the extreme penalty. the
Governor will approyethe act, and viii
commute the present doomed creatures
sentence to imprisonment for life.
The propriety OF hanging women has
long been. a matter for popular and
Legislative discussion. Some States ex-
empt the sex from the extreme penalty,
but others, as New York, make no
distinction providing the same penalties
for women as for men. If hanging is
right, proper or ever justifisble-which
good many people deny-there is no
reason why a woman as well as man !,
should rot be hanged. She knows
good from evil quite as well as he; her
sense OF right and wrong is as keen as
his; crime is the same whether COM
mittet by her or him. To say that q
woman who commits a murder ought
not to be executed, and man who kills
should suffer on the scaffold is to argue
that woman lacks intelligence and is
incapable of high moral development,
There are two reasons why capital
punishment is maintained; first, to
punish those guilty of murder, on the
theory that he who takes life should
yield his own life, and, second, as
terrible warning to deter others from
shedding human blood. If these reasons
are sufficient to Justify society in
hanging a man who murders. they Ger
tainly apply with equal force in the
case of woman who kills; that IS to
say, they apply with like force, if
women are capable of understanding
the enormity of the crime of murder.
and are subject to the lettering infu-
ences of an awful threat If women
are not so capable and subject, if they
are to be classed with the weak-minded
and insane, then, of course, they ought
not to De hanged. The argument that
it is shocking, barbarous and brutal to
execute women, cannot be urged as
reason for excepting them from the
punishment; it is also shocking, bar
bsrous and brutal to hang man.
A very large proportion, If net an
actual majority, of civilized people are
opposed to executions of either men or
women, holding that society has no
better right than the individual to kill,
and maintaining also that hanging does
not exercise tbs curative influence that
its advocates claim for it. The best way
to settle the matter of whether or not
women who murder should be treated
as men who murder, would be to abol-
iSh capital punishment

EXAMPLE OF FALsiFYING,

Just how Wel-informed in regard to
Utah affairs the average editor manages
to keep himself, is illustrated by the
following, taken from the editorial
columns of the Atlanta Constitution;
The Mormons of Utah are in state OF
great excitement, because a prominent po-
lygamist has been killed by a United States
deputy marshal. E. NJ. Dalton, a very
prominent man and eX-judge, had two wives
and many children, and was counting
beautiful girl, with matrimonial intent. He
was indicted, and twice escaped from the
officers He wrote to the authorities that
he would never be taken again by "a sOt of
a marshal A deputy marshal, named
Thompson, was detailed a few days ago TO
arrest Dalton. Dalton, who was very deS-
perate man, was on his ranch, driving some
cattle, when the marshal appeared and Or
dered a surrender. Instead of complying
with the demand, Dalton put spurs to his
horse, and dashed off. The marshal fired
with fatal effect. Under the law out there,
made by the MormonS themselves, the mar
shall viii be cleared. An officer is allowed
to kill prisoner to prevent an escape, if the
prisoner is charged with prison offense."
1t is difficult to understand why it
wouldn't have been just as well for the
editor to have stated the facts as to
have written the batch of misstatements
and falsehoods. There are Just thirteen
out and out lies in the above, besid 8
an assortment of lies by implications
As an example of lying fast and thick
and of crowding falsehoods into few
words, the paragraph is gem, but as
piece of information in regard to an oc-
currence which has filled the papers
for weeks, it is conspicuous failure.

Immediately after the earthquake the water came bubbling from the hillsides on the Abbott ranch, ir in Sulphur Spring Valley, iron. where water has meyer been seen The extent of the water line is about one mile, and at the present time sufficient water is running from the recent exposed seams tc supply one hundred thousand head of cattle. In one place in particu- lar, far up on the mountain side { stream of pure water is belching forth from the hillside fully tel inches in diameter, and at present shows no signs of ceasing. Should this water supply continue, this vii be the most valuable ranch in Ari zona. Mir. Pascholy says there is at the present time sufficient water to irrigate one thousand acres ot land.

There seems no doubt now that H. Schell, of Temperance Colony, has the glanders. Dr Hopkins who is attending is satisfied that it is the glanders beyond a doubt and we understand that Dr. Dearoff and others concur in this opinion. MT. Schell says that he has lost six or seven horses with this disease late lp, and has spent much of his time doctoring them. He doubtless con- tracted the disease in this manner. The disease is horrible and dan gerous one-so much so that 1t is only with extreme caution'that ali mals infected are to be treated by veterinary surgeons themselves. All animals infected with this disease should at once be destroyed and deeply buried.--Fresno tCal. ] Ex- p0sitor.

\ shooting scrape occurred near Fort Grant on Friday of last week between two ranchers, Vim. Teller and P. Rail. Very mcagre particu- lars of the affair have come to hand but from what we have been able to learn it appears that Nr. Rails cat tie were on Mr. Telfer's place, and the latter ordered Rail to drive them of. A quarrel then ensued, which en,led with a shooting bout. Rail was wounded twice, one ball entering the chin and the other blowing a furrow in his forehead. Teller was shot in the left side. It is believed that both will recover.- Wilcox Stockman.

Ono way to improve the value of our beef cattle is to rid the country of all contagious diseases, and then secure the abrogation of the Eng fish law that prohibits the feeding of American cattle on English pas lures.

The Montrose Live Stock Com pany, of Colorado, E. s. Land, manager, has introduced new plan for running cattle on shares, says an exchange. The following is the plan as 1t appears in their pros- pectus:
 "For each and every COW turned over to us, or on the payment of twenty-five dollars, we issue a share of stock to the owner and invest his money in she cattle. These cat tie we take care of at our own ex- pense for five years, and at the end of that time we turn over to each and every shareholder five head of stock, agreeing thereby to make good the original purchase, insur- ing each year the actual product of every cow furnished, making over seventy-fve per cent to the invest or, without any risk whatever, we agree to divide up the profits or turn over stock to each and every shareholder, buy it in or further in- vest in cattle for him on the above plan. After the five years, if any of the shareholders desire to with draw from the company, their stock will be bought in at market value and a reasonable interest per annum allowed them on the actual cash they have invested"

The Prescott Journal-Miner says Sheriff Mulvenon received a tele- gram from Henry Mehrens, at Camp Verde, stating that Saml s. Shull, we'll known stockman of the Mo- gollon mountains, had been found dead in his cabin, shot through the head with a shot gun. His ranch was about two miles west of the Pine Springs, on the Mogollons. thirty miles above Beaver Head, on the old stage road. No particulars of the affair are given, but it is known that about a week ago Shull had trouble with one of his neigh bors, whom he beat pretty severely. On receipt of the news Sheriff Mul- venom immediately started to the scene of the murder, and will in stitute a thorough investigation.

A few cattle have died around Wilcox lately of some strange and undefined, disease.

Ii food is placed in the animals mouths, they will eat it, but make no attempt to eat otherwise, even if placed within their reach. The cattle which have thus far died, have generally been in good condition. It is believed that the malady is caused by eat ing some weed or plant, probably the destrvctive loco weed.-Wilcox Stockman.

Cattle down in Sonora n7ar Sari and other points near there are said to 4be dying of starvation as there
 has been no rain in that country for a great many months and the grass is entirely gone, there being noth- ing left but the twigs on the bushes and they have been eaten off as high as the cattle can reach. This would be a good place for Arizona cattlemen to go to buy stock for tkeir ranches, that have abundance of water and grass.-Nogales News.

The New Mexico Live Stock Au- thorlties have lifted their quaran- tine, save against Texas fever. They have been the first to recognize the improved health of all cattle in the west and see that the danger from contagious animal diseases has been greatly reduced since increased power has been lodged in the Com missioner of Agriculture in dealing with contagious cattle diseases and
 most of the Western States have hedged themselves with wholesome sanitary stock laws. New Mexico's $ action is in contrast with her ad-

Col. A. E. Head sold a train load of cattle to California parties, says the Silver City Sentinel, and deliv- cred them at Deming. He received 2 cents per pound, and the cattle averaged ,000 pounds, making the price $27.75 per head. This is the largest price yetreceived for a bunch of cattle in the southwest this sea son, and would seem to indicate that the coming market for cattle in this section is California. The consumption in that State is much greater than the supply, and buyers must necessarily look to other To- calities. Let the demand for beef in California increase, Arizona and New Mexico can more than supply all her demands

The old and reliable trail boss, Bill Foster, passed this point last Sunday with 1779 head of range steers on the way to market.

The four Mexicans who held .pl' and hanged up Mr. W. H. Wheaton
 last week at his ranch on the Saf. Pedro river, just across the Pinal county line, have been captured and with one exception, are now in the Pima county jail. The exception,
 Apada, is the one who was killed while resisting arrest. The other three are Rancho Gomez, Fernando Vasquez and Libgado Pueblo. Go meg, the leader of the gang, has confessed, and states that the other that the other three mentioned were with him. These arrests will break up a dangerous gangwho have been robbing and murdering in Arizona and Sonora for some years past. They had hiding places in the south
